The environmental investments of the oil and natural gas industry represent a crucial aspect of today’s energy exploration process.

America’s oil and natural gas industry uses technologies to find resources in a clean and responsible manner. Through new seismic exploration and extended reach drilling technologies, geologists can see and survey underground oil and natural gas deposits more effectively than in days past. This improves exploration success rates while reducing surface disturbance and environmental impact. Electronic navigation and physical oceanographic systems also help safeguard our natural resources and are a large part of the reason why over the last decade, more than 99.9 percent of oil delivered by tankers has reached its destination in the U.S. without incident.
